"I think it's silly because there's a feature film and three episodes,"
"We spent more money on music in this than I did on Rush Hour. I mean, top of the line, three best cinematographers in the world, at the highest level. Eighty people on the first day of shooting in my crew. That's not unheard of in a documentary. You put the money on the screen."
"Melania isn't a documentary at all, but in fact a "creative experience that offers perspectives, insights and moments.""
Amazon licensed Melania Trump's film rights for $40 million and allocated an additional $35 million for marketing, producing a $75 million total expenditure. The marketing budget was reported as roughly ten times the average spend for major documentaries, while principal photography reportedly took about 20 days. Reports indicate Melania Trump, credited as a producer, is expected to receive about $27 million from the licensing fee. Production defended the budget by citing high-end music, multiple top cinematographers, and an eighty-person crew on the first day. Melania characterized the project as a "creative experience" offering perspectives, insights and moments.
